#Sakartvelo

0 posts0 participants0 posts today

Not sure I posted this here: a pretty long listen, but I did an episode of the Maniculum podcast where I sat down and talked to the hosts, Zoe and Mac, about the great medieval Georgian epic the Knight in Panther Skin with a view towards re-using and understanding it anew as inspiration for modern fantasy/TTRPGs.

I hope someone out there finds it interesting! Thoughts welcome if you have time for a listen :)

Another new face at the IFI, Tinatin Khomeriki joins us as a postdoctoral researcher: she is also an assistant professor at the Free University of Tbilisi.

As another member of our Caucasus Studies research group, Tina will contribute to the Circulating Knowledge in the Caucasus project, examining the production, dissemination, and exchange of knowledge in Georgia amid political tensions. Her research interests include urban anthropology, knowledge production, (in)security, (mis)trust, and suspicion.

Welcome, Tina!

🇬🇪 Meanwhile, #Sakartvelo has been protesting for the 22nd day in a row

By this time, the protests had turned into evening gatherings in front of parliament with the singing of folk songs and the shouting of political slogans.

However, the number of protesters continues to be considerable.
It seems that the pro-#Russian "#Georgian_Dream" has decided to wait until #Georgians themselves get tired of walking around downtown #Tbilisi every night.
